should i get the dual fan gtx 970 zotac ?

[balmung11]

hi guys currently nxt week i can buy the msi r9 290 gaming edition for a cheap price but!!!!! for some reason this gpu pops up which is zotac 970 with only additional 22$ difference with the r9 290 msi gaming oc

this is the cheapest non blower card of 970 that i can buy is it worth getting it ? or should i just go with the msi r9 290 with a good custom cooler ?

I would go with the GTX 970. You'll get faster/better driver support, it's slightly better than the R9 290 and runs on less power.

Here's the performance difference:

Zotac makes great cards and that will perform fine.

Dual Fan Zotac will perform equally well just like all the more well known brands.

The Zotac is a great card to get for the price. Zotac has come a long way in the last couple years and is a very viable option. If you are on a budget then I highly recommend going Zotac. If you can afford the MSI Gaming card it is the all around best card to get but the Zotac isn't a bad choice.
